    Apparently ads aren't their only weakness.  They're still having trouble constructing simple English sentences.

    Maybe technically, but based on the photo, it's now BPC, filled with apartment buildings, shops, and the lower end of Hudson River Park.

    I don't see anyone here jumping to your defense.  And it's usually a spirited group with lots of friendly debate.  But never with the venomous vitriol that you've managed.  So my conclusion is that the only bullshit here is the crap between your ears.

    I agree.  I can't imagine anyone saying "please let me shoot this in DV," or any video format.  And although I suppose there might be some instance where it would lend itself to the creative style established for the ad, like the ad is shot through the lens of a family on their summer vacation, I can't imagine telling the client that it's just better if we shoot this on video.

    Barney Miller reached it's highest rating, #16, in the 78/79 season, so Linden would have been at the peak of his marketability as a spokesperson.

    Honey Tree was known as "Easy," and she was really an incredible dog.  I worked at D'Arcy from '83 through the B&B merger in '85, until I left for love and greener pastures in '87.  I didn't work on Bud Light, but I attended many "Spuds" events, and it was amazing what they could get that dog to do.  The tales of that dog being able to "work a room" are no urban myth.  She had everyone eating out of her paw.

    The repetitive nature of these shows is what they're all about.  "Best of" shows are always going to be that way, because other than a few additions with each additional year, the "best of" is going to remain the same.  The only variable is going to be based on the criteria the producers use for judging what's best.   "Oscar's Greatest Films" for instance, is always going to remain the same.  Ben-Hur, Titanic, and The Return of the King have all won 11 Oscars, and they're always going to be featured in such a show whether you like them or not.  The same is true of the 1984 Apple Ad for Commercials.     But then you have the advantage of being able to create your own show right here at Adland, where you can pick the Super Bowl Commercials you think are best.
